Stainless Steel Retort Stand – Corrosion-Resistant 60cm for Cleanrooms & Universities
Product Overview
The Stainless Steel Retort Stand Series offers superior corrosion resistance for demanding laboratory environments where standard carbon steel stands would rust. Featuring a 12mm solid stainless steel rod and a choice of two base designs, these stands are ideal for fume hoods, cleanrooms, pharmaceutical labs, and any application involving acids, salts, or high humidity.
Two models are available: the standard version (stainless steel shell with iron counterweight) for general corrosive‑resistant use, and the university grade (full 304 stainless steel base with non‑slip sleeve) for maximum durability and hygiene. Both stand 60cm tall and include essential accessories.
Key Features
12mm solid stainless steel rod – Will not rust, easy to clean, autoclavable (rod only)
Two base options – Standard (SS shell + iron weight) or full 304 SS base with anti‑slip sleeve
60cm height – Perfect for standard benchtop experiments
Complete accessory set – Flask clamp, small and large iron rings (rings are stainless or coated)
University grade – Larger base (17.5×28.5cm) and extra‑wide cross clamp (max 75mm) for heavy glassware
Chemical resistant – Withstands acids, bases, and solvents

Why Choose Stainless Steel?
Never rusts – Even after years of exposure to moisture and chemicals
Easy to clean – Smooth surface wipes clean; no paint to chip
Professional appearance – Ideal for university and research labs
University grade – Larger base and wider clamp for demanding teaching environments
Safe for autoclaving – Full stainless components can be sterilized
Usage Instructions
Use with non‑abrasive cleaners to preserve the brushed finish.
For autoclaving, disassemble the rod from the base if the base has an iron weight (standard model). The university grade full SS base can be autoclaved as a unit.
When clamping glassware, still use rubber padding to avoid scratching the stainless steel clamp jaws.
Wipe dry after use – although rust is not an issue, water spots can be removed with a soft cloth.
Ideal For
University & college chemistry labs
Pharmaceutical quality control
Food & beverage testing labs
Coastal or high‑humidity laboratories
Cleanrooms and fume hoods
Any lab where carbon steel stands have failed due to rust
